Select 5: Tail Pipe / Shynola  

Those are the people who made the ad but those not says anything about

Hi.

The "indefinable you" song was created specifically for the Honda ad
by a music studio company called Grayson Matthews (songwriter: Rob
Melamed) in Toronto.  So it's only about 60 seconds long.

It's definitely a stand out advertisment. It's actually an ad for
Honda in general (snowblowers even) - not a specific model. I think
it's a Canadian only ad.

The song is very lyrical and has a lilting feeling - lovely really. It
has a kind of Amy Mann quality to it in that it has these slightly
awkard and complex phrasings. Nice. Interesting that it is a
custom-made song and not a full length recording.
